Kubernetes, Medium (Advanced), Concepts. https://k8wiz.com/uquiz/what-is-the-purpose-of-a-kubernetes-job

- A. To run continuous background processing
- B. To run pods that perform a finite task and then terminate
- C. To schedule maintenance tasks on nodes
- D. To manage user access to the cluster

**Answer:** To run pods that perform a finite task and then terminate

**Explanation:** A Job creates one or more pods and ensures that a specified number of them successfully terminate. Jobs are useful for batch processing, where each pod executes a task to completion and then stops, rather than running continuously like a Deployment.
